It's raining, It's pouring
What a wonderful day in Adelaide today. Min temp - 11. Max temp - 12. Precipitation - all day. I just hope the rain heads to Sydney and fills the reserves. The flight from Sydney was great except for the bit where DS2 screamed. Which was the entire flight minus 20 minutes. He was so overtired, and excited and wired and boy did everyone know he was there. There was nothing we could do other than pray he would fall asleep soon. Poor little bugger. DS1 had no such problem and passed out not long after take off.
I saw Mum today and she looks fantastic. It is hard to believe she is that sick when she looks so great. But she is sick and she won't be home this weekend as they can't let her home until her stomach and bowels decide to work properly. But that is OK. We can visit her as often as we want and she is so excited to see the boys. It is lovely. And she has a great room overlooking the golf course. Which looked more like a pond today.
Dad is holding up really well and we are currently visiting and having pizza for dinner. I ordered a chicken burger so doing OK on the food front. Which is pretty difficult since Mum & Dad own a fish and chip shop on the beach and have the most yummy stuff. Dang and blast it :) I will be coming down tomorrow to take the dog for a long walk so hope the rain will have a break when I am here.
Wishing all the Dad's a very Happy Fathers Day for tomorrow.

M, cannot believe your news. Your family are very lucky to have a level-headed person such as yourself in their lives. Level-headed enough to ensure you take time out for yourself too.
Given that things are what they are, it sounds like happenings in Adelaide are even better than expected and it must be great to see your family enjoying themselves together.
Oh, and keep sending those raindances Sydney's way! It hardly stopped raining in the city today; gave the place a nice wash!

A FISH AND CHIP SHOP IN THE FAMILY - oh my god I never knew how lucky you were - or really unlucky for us WW. You are very good and keep being kind to yourself. BTW - I am very pleased I wasn't on the flight with you and your fam 8-) hugs lb
